Webcam with Skype issue
I bought a webcam off ebay, a Risheng that came with a driver cd. The webcam functions fine until I try to use it with Skype, which is the only reason I got a webcam for my desktop. When I have Skype running and I click the button to activate the video call, Skype stops working and shuts itself off. Any ideas?

Have you tried configuring Skype to use the webcam? Chekc out OPTIONS > VIDEO SETTINGS and make sure Skype can see the cam, and the cam sees you.

i think i have the same webcam but mine is a 20 megapixel webcam and the cd only has risheng on it as well. i can't get the drivers to install correctly did you have the same problem? it gives an error code 10 saying device will not start or something to that nature.

any help would be great! thanks!
